Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC)

Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (N.C.C. Management & Development Co., Ltd.) was established in January 1991 in response to the needs of Thailand’s specific and important business sector.

The combined strength of the company’s substantial and established business partners together with the up-front registered capital, ensure a diverse range of essential management skills, backed by experience and expertise in such vital areas as convention center and hotel management as well as property management and development.

Following the opening in 1991 of the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, the Thai government, in pursuit of its policy of developing the country as a regional center of trade and finance, looked to the private sector to manage the Center’s operation and marketing. Through competitive bidding, N.C.C. Management & Development Co., Ltd. was selected by The Ministry of Finance to be the management company of the Center.
